What do the codes for the Core Content for Social Studies Assessment mean?
Each content standard is preceded by a code. The code begins with SS for Social Studies and is then followed by a grade level designation and then a 3-digit number that indicates subdomain, organizer, and sequential standard, respectively. The grade level codes used are listed below.
Grade Level Codes Subdomains Organizers
EP = end of primary 1 = Government & Civics 1 = Formation of Governments
04 = fourth grade 2 = Constitutional Principles
05 = fifth grade 3 = Rights and Responsibilities
06 = sixth grade 2 = Cultures & Societies 1 = Elements of Culture
07 = seventh grade 2 = Social Institutions
08 = eighth grade 3 = Interactions Among Individuals and Groups
HS = high school 3 = Economics 1 = Scarcity
2 = Economic Systems and Institutions
3 = Markets
4 = Production, Distributions and Consumption
4 = Geography 1 = The Use of Geographic Tools
2 = Regions
3 = Patterns
4 = Human-Environment Interaction
5 = Historical Perspective 1 = The Factual and Interpretive Nature of History
2 = The History of the United States
3 = The History of the World
The numbers in the code indicate the subdomain of social studies and its relationship to the organizers within a subdomain. For example, the first content standard of the first subdomain under the first organizer is numbered SS-08-1.3.2. SS-08-1.3.2 SS = Social Studies (domain) 08 = Eighth Grade 1 = Government and Civics (first subdomain) 3 = Rights and Responsibilities (third organizer) 2 = (second standard)
